Funny but with a name like DX18 my first reaction was noticing it does not have a screen like the 18mz.

I dont think touch screen is that important. As long as the roller is well made and doesnt break. My roller on the DX8 hasnt broken but it is too slippery. The screen looks a little bigger though.

I guess spektrum focus more on the programming and actual useful features instead of big, coloured touch screen display type radio manafactures.

It doesnt seem to have sliders. Also I just noticed the roller is black, hopefully with a friction feel to it.

They finally have the TX ON/OFF switch in the right (upside) position.
Personally I don't like the plastic grab handle on a Tx of this price range. The DX8 Tx case already has big overall dimensions, the DX18 seems even larger. |
